HI,
I am trying to connect my DL980 server to the 10Gb/sec network using the 665249-B21 HP Ethernet 10Gb 2P 560SFP+ Adptr with 455883-B21 SFP transceiver. I amusing Red Hat v6.6. I get no link light, and the status is donw from the OS:-
[root@lxtperpsoa02 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago)
[root@lxtperpsoa02 ~]# ip addr show eth6
8: eth6: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN qlen 1000
link/ether 8c:dc:d4:b0:6b:c0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
[root@lxtperpsoa02 ~]# ethtool eth6
Settings for eth6:
Supported ports: [ FIBRE ]
Supported link modes: 10000baseT/Full
Supported pause frame use: No

Advertised link modes: 10000baseT/Full

Transceiver: external

Supports Wake-on: d

Current message level: 0x00000007 (7)

Do I need to set the speed, I see it does not support autonegotiation?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Andrew
